The fierce competition between "catalyst" and "desperate ld in terms of sales exceeded many people's expectations.

On the one hand, "Desperate" has already been released in "Second", and the purchasing power of the single is bound to be affected, because the main song of this song is the exclusive song of song mí, and most of the loyal songs mí are Having already purchased the album, naturally there is no need to buy any more singles; on the other hand, "Catalyst" has not released physical albums, relying only on the downloads of digital music, it is difficult to compete with physical singles, this situation is from The upward curve that "Never Walk Alone" slowly climbed last year is evident.

The two singles were released on the same day, and both showed amazing sales in the first week of release, which made the media sigh that Evan Bell's appeal is indeed extraordinary.

In the second week, however, the sales of the two singles both fell as expected. Despite this, "Desperate" still won the championship with a sales volume of 240,000 for a week, and "Catalyst" ranked second with a sales volume of 220,000. Although this drop is amazing, it still shows the strong purchasing power of the singers.

By the third week, "Catalyst" rebounded strongly, taking the number one spot on the Billboard singles sales chart of the week with a score of 300,000. "Desperate" sales fell further, but still achieved a figure of 210,000, continuing to be the runner-up.

Since then, "Catalyst" has shown its strength in line with quality. Although it is only downloaded by iTunes, it has always maintained a download volume of around 200,000. It kept the Evan Bell and Linkin Park collaboration at No. 1 on the Billboard singles chart for four weeks.

Despite the lack of sales stamina, "Desperate" is still not to be underestimated. The sales figure has always remained above 100,000, and it also stayed in the runner-up position for three weeks before falling to the second place. If you add Changhong's "Top Billboard Singles Sales Chart" to the top ten, three names belong to Evan Bell. However, this is not surprising, as early as Evan Bell's first year of debut. He has done such miracles time and time again.

Until the end of August, the cumulative sales of "Catalyst" exceeded 1.5 million, although the sales of "Desperate" were slightly inferior. But also got platinum certification. exceeded one million.

From this point of view, although "Catalyst" is only downloaded on iTunes, the cooperation between the two golden names of Linkin Park and Evan Bell still makes countless songs mí flock to them. In the field of music, quality is always the first factor. Although the sales of "Desperate" are not good, it still shows the strong support of the singers, and the stamina cannot be underestimated. Maybe these two singles can still occupy a position on the year-end single sales chart.

To promote the single. Evan Bell landed on "Saturday Night Live" for the second time, this time he took over the hosting baton again, and gave a harsh sarcasm to his "arrogant" behavior of refusing to attend the Oscars. Won the house again. Today, Evan Bell's talent in eloquence has gradually become well known to the audience. Whether it's "Saturday Night Live" or a Tony Awards ceremony, Evan Bell is free to come along and amuse the audience with his little humor.

After a series of promotions for the song, Evan Bell came to the CBS Building at the corner of Sixth Avenue and 52nd Street. This building, built in 1965, was dubbed "Black Rock" by New Yorkers because of its dark building appearance and neat window lattice, which really looks like an ugly black ashlar. But here, it's CBS Company (CBS) headquarters in New York. Although CBS's headquarters is still in Philadelphia, most of its office operations have now moved to the Black Rock Building in Manhattan.

Founded in 1927, CBS, after years of development, has become one of the three largest commercial radio and television networks in the country. While CBS has been catching up with its big brother NBC in TV ratings, its radio ratings have consistently ranked first in the nation.

In 1996, CBS launched the comedy "Everyone Loves Ray Méng De", which made it a victory in both the number of viewers and word of mouth. Subsequently, CBS launched the reality show "Survivor" in 2000, which achieved a huge ratings victory. Immediately afterwards, CBS launched "Crime Scene Tunes I, establishing its status as the leader of crime detective dramas in the 21st century. After entering 2003, CBS has formed a strong challenge to the ratings of TV dramas. In the statistics of the spring and summer that have ended, CBS has achieved a slight advantage. Perhaps, this year will become the three major commercial enterprises. A year in which the network's location changed.

Evan Bell first submitted the "NCIS (S plan to CBS, not only because CBS TV broadcasted the show in the past life, but also because CBS does have one of the best detective dramas. set, well-received. In the future, in addition to "Crime Scene Investigation" and "Navy Crime Investigation Service", CBS TV will also have detective dramas such as "Irregular Cases", "Criminal Minds", "Digital Hunt", "Hawaii SWAT" and so on.

Evan Bell appeared at the Blackrock Building today, not for the taping, but for the NCIS. After months of intensive preparation, "NCIS" has completed the filming of the first three episodes. Today is the day when the crew came to CBS headquarters for the pilot broadcast.

Although CBS TV has already booked the twenty-four episodes of the first season of "NCIS", it is well known that major TV stations have always been relentless in cutting dramas. Even if the first season is booked, as long as the ratings fail to meet expectations , It is not uncommon for the first season to be cut before the end of the broadcast. So, the pilot is still very important.

The two Bell brothers appeared at the Blackstone Building together, passed the security check, and received a temporary pass. It took the elevator to go upstairs. At the reception on the first floor, the appearance of Evan Bell also caused a little sāo. Although this is the New York headquarters of CBS, where artists come and go very frequently, the appearance of Evan Bell, who is so popular, still makes everyone unable to restrain it. The jī movement in the heart.

When Sam Reid came out to greet Evan Bell, he brought it up with a smile on his face. "It seems that the Blackstone Building is going to be very lively today, and my colleagues behind me are envious."

Evan Bell doesn't mind either, he's already used to this kind of ridicule. "If this helps the TV series, I'm definitely willing to appear often."

After Sam Reed and Teddy Bell shook hands and introduced each other, Sam Reed spoke to Evan Bell. "It's simple. If you're willing to guest-star in a few episodes. That's a great help in terms of conversation and attention." That's right. In Evan Bell's current position, if he makes a cameo appearance in a TV series, although the ratings cannot be guaranteed: the ratings of TV series still depend on the reputation of the TV series and the viewing habits of the audience. The "Investigative Office" can still be done easily.

Evan Bell shook his head, "This show still wins by quality. Even if I want to make a cameo appearance. At least after the second and third seasons."

Sam Reid is just saying that, the current "crime scene investigation" relies on quality to win, and rarely relies on star power to attract attention.

This time, only the two Bell brothers attended the pilot meeting as representatives of Eleven Studios. One is that the pilot does not require too many people to participate, and the other is that the staff of the "NCIS" crew are all filming in Washington. Sean Bonan simply couldn't walk away. As for CBS TV, this is their home ground, and it is estimated that important figures such as the president and producer who have the power to kill the TV series will appear.

Walking into the conference room, it was already filled with a dozen people. However, Sam Reid seemed to have no intention of introducing them one by one: because there was no need for this, Sam Reid took Evan Bell directly to the end of the long oval table in the conference room, where a man dressed in white silk was standing there. In front of the blond lady in the shirt and black dress, this lady in her 40s or 50s had her hair tied into a bun, and her capable and concise temperament clearly conveyed the aura of a strong woman. Evan Bell guessed that this is the current head of CBS TV, Nancy Trim.

really. "Mr. Bell, good afternoon. I'm Nancy Trim." This strong woman can firmly hold the position of head of CBS TV station in the fierce competition, which is definitely an object that needs attention.

Evan Bell stretched out his right hand and held Nancy Trim's right hand. There was a platinum ring on those white hands, and there were no extra accessories. "Good afternoon, I'm Evan Bell. This is Teddy Bell." It's not the first time Evan Bell has dealt with such a big man, whether it's Lee Kelleher or Barry Mayer, or Steve Jobs, is a role that can be compared with the strong woman in front of him.

From the one-sided confrontation just now, Evan Bell knew that Nancy Trim was a decisive character. As the helm of CBS TV, she must have a clear enough understanding of the development of the TV station. And in the choice of TV programs, one must have a decisive heart. When cutting, cutting, and hesitating will not achieve great things.

Nancy Trim still complimented Evan Bell a few times, and talked about the "Nine" that had just ended the show recently, and the atmosphere was pleasant. But soon, Nancy Trim cut into the theme, "Mr. Bell, we are very much looking forward to the pilot broadcast of 'NCIS', and we hope this is a good work." If the work is good enough, Naturally, CBS is willing to continue to cooperate, which is a win-win solution.

Evan Bell didn't continue the nonsense, "I'm also looking forward to the finished product. So what are we waiting for? Let's start the pilot."

Evan Bell's simplicity was obviously very satisfying to Nancy Trim, and she gave a faint smile.
